Supercommittee stuck…no surprise

Once upon a time in America the citizens had to suffer with a dysfunctional Congress. It couldn’t solve anything. So the elected morons in suits decided to pass off decision-making to a Stupidcommittee Supercommittee whose job it was to cut through the crap and pass some laws so we could start an economic recovery.

Didn’t happen.

I didn’t think it would and now the Supercommittee talks are at an impasse or to put it more eloquently…the special clowns are more busy calling each other names than doing any serious negotiating.

What we have here is a failure to communicate, as Paul Newman once said. Neither side will budge despite the dog-and-pony show in Congress when they touted this supercommittee would be the end of the stalemates.

Can you say bullshit?

More important, can you guess what will happen next?

I can. Nothing.

Until the presidential election is over next November we the people can expect nothing from our elected officials…

Nothing… but senseless rhetoric and promises that will never be kept. The Party of No meets the Party of Slow.

Meanwhile the economy struggles. The pols play patsy. I don’t know about you, but I’m for getting rid of all the clowns and starting over. A clean sweep.
